Donna wanted something that looked good on her body type.i have over 30 muslins student s can try on. i have how much yardage each one takes.after trying on many donna chose this simple design because she like how it looked on her . let me stop and say the muslins are just a starting point… each student will decide how the design can be changed for themselves and how the hand woven yardage can be used to be more creative in it's applications.

draping and discussing ….

and what the students call the" scary part" cutting into your yardage for the first time!

pack her new loom and bench in the suv for it's trip back to washington state!

I have met a new Saori freind for life! Thank you Donna it was a such a wonderful intensive!

"Some time in the future I want to come back to learn how to wind a warp and learn a little about pattern-making…or at least, how to alter a pattern so it looks good on my body. I had such a good time those 4 days!"
